We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The area that could benefit from improvement in this Planisware is the project management tool. I have previously used Project Server, which is a Microsoft solution, and I found it to be more user-friendly as it included a client solution. In contrast, with this solution, the only option available is the online version, making it difficult to create activities, milestones, and other necessary components. This is in comparison to Planisware, which offers a more comprehensive solution.""We have a variety of different modules, but it is mainly used for costs, risks, and resources.""It stands out by automating the intricate mechanics of project execution, eliminating the need for highly technical individuals to manage and reconfigure models.""There are two things in particular that I enjoy. The first is the portfolio planning section. Another advantage is that it is highly customizable.""The solution is performance-oriented and easily customized accordingly to many areas, such as performance KPI.""Overall, our company has all disintegrated systems, and with Planisware, we are getting a very integrated view of my portfolio reporting, cost and load, and everything else."

"The feature that has improved our project planning the most is the ability to create custom workflows, which allows us to automate manual tasks that project managers need to perform. The collaboration feature enhances our team's productivity by allowing individuals to see the impact of their decisions on projects owned and managed by other teams.""Clarizen Slide Publisher has helped increase transparency and communication with project stakeholders for us.""Clarizen's strength is reporting. Aside from reporting, I also like the ability to create customized workflow and custom actions. The workflow rules are handy. For example, you can create custom fields and dependent picklists.""I like the project management solution. It's really nice."

Cons
"They do not have anything that can assist customers with multi-year roadmap planning.""More integration is needed with other kinds of products for better collaboration.""The learning curve is steep and there could be more avenues for opening up learning materials to a broader audience, enabling individuals to gain practical experience with the tool.""The solution's user experience and user interface need improvement because they are not that great and intuitive.""Its stability should be improved. Its stability is the main issue, but we sometimes also have issues with calculations.""The area that could benefit from improvement in this Planisware is the project management tool. I have previously used Project Server, which is a Microsoft solution, and I found it to be more user-friendly as it included a client solution. In contrast, with this solution, the only option available is the online version, making it difficult to create activities, milestones, and other necessary components. This is in comparison to Planisware, which offers a more comprehensive solution."

More Planisware Cons →

"If I start customizing too many things, Clarizen tends to get really slow in our environment and especially if I'm tunneled in an environment, like if I'm connected to my VPN.""It could be more user-friendly. I think it is too overwhelming, initially, in terms of possibilities and so on.""One specific area for improvement could be implementing a development environment to test workflows with live production data.""I felt like the slide publisher isn't that user-friendly. I think it wasn't that easy to use or to figure out because of formatting constraints, or maybe we need to get better at understanding some of its limitations."
